- How to copy a sheet with its protections.
Important note:
* You cannot just call prot[i].getRange() because the range value includes data about the sheet it's protecting, not just the row/column or A1 notation value. Make sure to call prot[i].getRange().getA1Notation() so it runs correctly.
Sheet (to copy):
docs.google.co...
Script:
function copyWithProtections(){
const sh = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const ss = sh.getSheetByName("Template");
const prot = ss.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.RANGE)
let nSheet = ss.copyTo(sh).setName(sh.getNumSheets()-1);
let p;
for (let i in prot){
p = nSheet.getRange(prot[i].getRange().getA1Notation()).protect();
p.removeEditors(p.getEditors());
if (p.canDomainEdit()) {
p.setDomainEdit(false);
}
}
}
This is brilliant! Can't believe not everybody uses this in their spreadsheets.
Glad it's helped!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! This is exactly what I needed. What if you want to duplicate a whole notebook with protections?
Wow, it finally works, hahaha. After trying many times (first time using a script). What I didn't know was after changing the CopyWithProtections file name with my file name and running the script I needed to go back to my original sheet and click the "App Script" in the Extension tab. I can now duplicate my tabs for each month with my ranges still protected and people who make their own copy of my file still have protected ranges in them. Thanks for the script @SpencerFarris ! You've saved me tons of time!
Flies to script like we know exactly where to find it. I appreciate the vid, well done!
My later videos do show the menu to get there, but I was very new to making these when I did this one. Glad you enjoyed.
hi. i'd copied your script but there's an error occur. here's what it says.
8:07:16 AM Error
TypeError: Cannot read property 'getProtections' of null
copyWithProtections @ Copy of Code.gs:4
how can I possibly use your script in 2022 update?
thank you for this. I'm wondering if this will be the fix I need for my sheet. I have a sheet (a template per say) I want people to be able to copy and keep on their computer. I want them to be able to edit some cells but not all of them. So far whenever I share it with them even when I change the share link and add "copy" or "template/preview" they are still able to edit the locked cells. Will changing the scrip allow me share a copy of my file with them that they can edit but still not be able to edit locked cells?
The owner of a sheet can *never* be forbidden from editing a range. If you want your users to have a personalized copy with protections then you need to make the copy for them so that your account is the owner.
Also, G Sheets aren't stored on an individuals computer. They are all cloud-based.
@@SpencerFarris ahhh ok. So if I'm giving the sheet to multiple people and I want each of them to be able to edit but still have locked cells I would need to make a different copy for each person and then share it with them individually. Is that correct?
@@TheCraftyBrick Yes :)
Thank you so much! You just save me and my team a ton of time!
Okay Spencer. I am sure someone asked this below, or this video answers it (HA!) - but this is all very new to me and I don't really know what I am doing. What I have is a single google sheet with about 11 titled tabs at the bottom. I successfully was able to share the entire google sheet with 11 tabs, and keep the protected ranges throughout all of them simply by making a copy. Both on Computer and Mobile. Yay, check!
Yet, when I make a copy after UNchecking off the boxes of 1. Editors can change permissions and share and 2. Viewers and commenters can see the option to download, print, and copy in the share settings - it resets itself. I know there's got to be a solution out there, because I can't always copy from my phone right away for a client and make these settings mobily. Unless I am missing a step?
First, what exactly does Editors changing permissions even mean? I understand the sharing portion, but as for the changing permission - does this mean the same 2 check box items listed above?
Second, Is there ANY way to ever share a file where NO ONE except me (owner) can print, make a copy and download? I hate that I am only given the option to not allow "viewers" or "commenters" to have this access when I still need people to make edits, but I don't want them making copies, printing or downloading!
I hope that makes sense! I appreciate your help in posting this videos!!!
The first means that Editors can change if it's shared with individuals or with anyone with the link.
You cannot restrict Editors from really doing anything with a file. There is a push for Google to adjust that, but right now an Editor is always able to download/print/copy/whatever
@@SpencerFarris thank you for the reply!!! I really wish they offered that!!
And what would be your suggestion for carrying over the permissions?
How would I edit this code to include both RANGE and SHEET permissions?
function copyWithProtections() {
// Get the active spreadsheet and the template sheet
const spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const templateSheet = spreadsheet.getSheetByName("Template");
// Copy the template sheet and set a new name
const newSheet = templateSheet.copyTo(spreadsheet);
newSheet.setName("Copied Sheet " + (spreadsheet.getNumSheets() - 1)); // Adjust this to set the desired name
// Get the protections of the template sheet
const protections = templateSheet.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.RANGE);
// Loop through the protections and apply them to the new sheet
protections.forEach(protection => {
const rangeNotation = protection.getRange().getA1Notation();
const newProtection = newSheet.getRange(rangeNotation).protect();
// Remove existing editors and apply original protection settings
newProtection.removeEditors(newProtection.getEditors());
if (protection.canDomainEdit()) {
newProtection.setDomainEdit(true);
} else {
newProtection.setDomainEdit(false);
}
// Copy the description
newProtection.setDescription(protection.getDescription());
// Copy the user and group editors
const editors = protection.getEditors();
if (editors.length > 0) {
newProtection.addEditors(editors);
}
});
// Get and apply sheet protection if exists
const sheetProtection = templateSheet.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.SHEET)[0];
if (sheetProtection) {
const newSheetProtection = newSheet.protect();
newSheetProtection.removeEditors(newSheetProtection.getEditors());
if (sheetProtection.canDomainEdit()) {
newSheetProtection.setDomainEdit(true);
} else {
newSheetProtection.setDomainEdit(false);
}
newSheetProtection.setDescription(sheetProtection.getDescription());
const sheetEditors = sheetProtection.getEditors();
if (sheetEditors.length > 0) {
newSheetProtection.addEditors(sheetEditors);
}
}
}
Hello, Sir! Your video is really helpful. I need to copy a sheet with sheet protection except certain range instead. I've tried to change the "p = nSheet.getRange" but in the end i got some errors. What should i do to make the script run? I need your help. Thanks in advance.
Do you make it? Need help here
Hi @Spencer! This really saved me from a lot of things, so thank you. I've got it working. Got a question though, what should I do if I want to apply these to multiple sheets? Thanks!
Instead of just the Template sheet? Create an array with the desired sheet names and loop through them.
Hey Spencer Thank you for your video and help
@spencer thank you for this excellent walk-through and script! I have it working in my Google Sheets workbook. It's all working fine, but the script executes *really* slowly. It literally takes 4-5 minutes to copy one sheet (tab) with protections. (The sheet being copied has some fairly complex formulas and a lot of individual cell protections, but still...) Do you have any tips on how I could speed up the script execution time? Thanks so much.
All that has to do with your computer and Internet, and the difficult of copying the sheet itself. Oftne there isn't a way to speed it up
Hi Spencer! You and I were chatting on Google Doc Editor Community, but my question was flagged and profile disabled for some reason. I hope you can still help me! This is what I responded:
I want a user to be able to duplicate the "Monthly Budget" tab at their leisure for numerous months. I would like the tab they duplicate (whether it be the original "monthly budget" tab or not) to bring everything over: formulas, format, and cell protection. Also, they will probably rename the sheets as they go (not sure if that's relevant to the script). The protection in place is "can edit: with warnings". Right now, I am using the script from this video, but when I duplicate a tab manually, it doesn't bring over the protections. I can only create exact duplicates if I run the script multiple times. But I would like the user to be able to duplicate a tab at will and get everything over (like excel).
Not sure if this is possible. Thanks again for your help! (-:
It is only possible to duplicate the cell protections if the duplicate tab is made with the script
Ok, thank you so much for responding!! That helps a lot. @@SpencerFarris
@@aleshamunson1290 Good luck! And I have no idea why your post was flagged, that's really really weird
I used your copy sheet, however I prefer to protect the SHEET and add exceptions. How do I modify this script for SHEET?
I honestly need to make another video with that
thanks Spencer, great one. Really helpful. Do you have apps script to copy sheet into another speadsheet with protection?
What exactly do you mean?
Hello. Excellente video. Unfortunately, the new sheet generated does not copy the protections. In my case, the original sheet is protected but I set exceptions in some cells. Would it be the cause of the script not to run properly?
Yes, that's exactly why. This script is written with range protections in mind and sheet protections work completely differently. I honestly need to just make a new video about that
Hi, Spencer. I can see your Persistence, thanks for helping people over the comment section. Why don't you drop your Venmo in your video description just so when people want to tip you for your efforts.
I also do have a question. Why can't I access Google Script? Like when I go to extensions and choose Script, it just won't load???
Do you get an error message, or just forever loading?
hanks for the code
i cannot press the run button what do you think is the problem?
Best guess is it didn't save
TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'getSheetByName')
why??
Hm, not sure. Can you post your code here and I'll look.
Dear,
I share my file with another coworker. He wants to duplicate this file. How does he do this?
Hey!
When I duplicate sheet using script specific editors lose privelage to edit on ranges and only I can do. How to fix this !
Eg : column b1 me and say " Jay " can edit.
Column b3 me and say " max " can edit.
But when I make a duplicate only I can edit they cannot. I have to share range manually.
Can you add me as an editor and we can work through it?
You save my life, thank you for scripts.. but, i have a question, how do we keep editor on the next sheet after duplication is complete ?..
What do you mean?
Hi Spencer... I have a Google Worksheet with several tabs for our agents to track their daily productivity. I've created a "master" template spreadsheet that I need to duplicate while keeping the protections on all the various sheets/tabs within the worksheet. Your script illustrated here is great for duplicating one sheet/tab within a spreadsheet, however, do you know how I can make a copy of the while file while keeping the protections?
So I would have it loop through all the tabs of the copy, get the protections from the analogous tab of the original, and apply those protections to the copied tab.
Great Information...Thanks
But, Who is Using this Script (triggering the Script), They Can also Edit the Protected Cells.
Is there any way to Edit only by Sheet Owners Not by the Triggerers??
@spencer Awaiting for your Reply
Yes, you need to use an Installed Trigger instead so that you can make it run as the sheet owners
Hello sir , thanks for this big help, saved a lots of my time . however i have a problem. when the script is finish and i have the copy, its only me that i have the permession to edit, is there any way that script copy the exact editors? cause i have like 20 ppl using the sheet and i want only 5 of them have the access.
same issue - did you ever find a solution?
Spencer, I have a template with protections where faculty will be making a COPY of the template. How do I keep the protections in a duplicated google sheet from a template?
Is the shown method not working for you?
@@SpencerFarris Ah, so your instructions will work for forced copies of a template... ok
hi - this is great, but I need a tweak and wondered if you could assist? I have a spreadsheet that has multiple tabs, one of which is a template tab. I need my team, who have shared access to the spreadsheet, to be able to copy the template tab, including all the permissions on the template tab.
I am a newbie when it comes to scripts, but what I noticed with the one you posted here is that the team would have to go to the scripts section and click 'run' in order to duplicate a tab, not feasible since scrips are more of an expert level function.
Any help would be awesome! We use our spreadsheet to manage our adoptable cat population - PURRS
Great video!! Helped me out tremendously. However, how do I keep custom permission for the ranges the same? For example, I have set a range so that only owner and 1 other user (user1) can edit and I have set another range so that owner and a different user (user2) can edit. How do I keep those custom permissions the same?
You should be able to call protection.getEditors() from the first range/protection and use that in the second.
@@SpencerFarris Thanks for the speedy reply. However, I don't know anythig about scripting. Where exactly do I put protection.getEditors().
@@camillehenry7484 If you want me to write it for you, please share the sheet with me spencer.farris@gmail.com and show exactly what you want done

I am sooo confused but this is exactly what I need for one of my documents. Do I copy the entire code verbatim? Where do I paste the code to??
Extensions > Apps Script
Delete what's there, paste this
Thank you! I see this works when duplicating a sheet within the same document. Is there something to protect various protected sheets/ranges in a document when someone makes a copy of the entire document? Like if I was selling a document to someone and they needed their own individual copy of an entire document?@@SpencerFarris
@@theeretailtherapist_If someone makes a copy of a document THEY are they owner, not you, so protections wouldn't do anything there.
Hi Spencer,
Thanks for the video. I literally just copy pasted your script above (making sure my sheet was named "Template" as well) and it worked for me.
The only issue I now have is that it created the copy at the end (complete right side) of all the sheet tabs and it takes me ages to manually pull each individual sheet back to the left. I have a sheet for each day of the year (= 365 sheets) in my file.
Is there any way I can create the copy and have it positioned on the left end of the tabs?
Thanks again
Use SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().moveActiveSheet(2); to move that sheet to the second position.
@@SpencerFarris Thank you. It worked when I executed it as a separate function.
Is there any way I can incorporate this line into the script you provided above in this video ("copy with protections") so it can be done in one execution rather than having to do the move once the copy has been created?
Apologies for the inconvenience. I am new to script. Thanks again

Thanks for the persistent effort to help me. I'm still not able to get it to work in one execution. This is what I've done. Could you let me know where I have gone wrong:

Don't run the script, it runs automatically whenever an edit occurs.
@@SpencerFarris I'm getting the same error if I click run and I don't understand your reply. You click run in the video and if I just manually duplicate the sheet it doesn't change as the script is set to do so I'm not sure how to make it cooperate. X3 I've not used Google's scripts before so this is a new task for me.
I half figured it out, just isn't holding protection settings for Sheet instead of Ranges. Had to go under the sheet, go to extensions, then apps script. I put the code there and ran it which now duplicated the template but does not carry protection settings unless I change the script back to Ranges and manually specify where can't be edited. Doing a Sheet and specifying where it could be edited was much cleaner but I'm not familiar enough with Google scripts to know the commands to make it work. This method does require me to click run though so I'm not sure if you're expecting it to be done a different way?
Error code in case anyone is interested when trying to run it with SHEET in place of RANGE on line 4 :)

It should, yes.
@spencer, is it possible to protect selected sheets, same range in a google sheet file
Yes, though I don't have that written up at present
Excellent video. The only issue I am having is an error of "Exception: Range not found" for line 10 of the code. I am copying the protection of an entire sheet with 10 exempt ranges so I changed that line of code to reflect sheet not range. Everything else is exactly the same. I was looking for a solution in other comments with similar issue and saw you mention "ON EDIT FUNCTIONS SHOULD NOT BE RUN MANUALLY" but I have no clue what that means. Think you could help me out?
On Edit functions run automatically whenever an edit is made.
But you actually have a different issue. SHEET protections are stored differently than RANGE protections. You need to call SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.SHEET. I *think* it should work like this:
function copyWithProtections(){
const sh = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const ss = sh.getSheetByName("Template");
const prot = ss.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.SHEET).getUnprotectedRanges();
let nSheet = ss.copyTo(sh).setName(sh.getNumSheets()-1);
let nProt = nSheet.protect();
nProt.setUnprotectedRanges(unprotected)
}
@@SpencerFarris Thank you very much for the reply. I was able to get what I needed for the short term redoing my format using several ranges protections but it would be a whole lot cleaner if I could get this to work getting the unprotected ranges.

how to copy protection sheet wit exeption some range?
What?
Hi Spencer, great video, instructions and explanation - I have just subscribed to your channel - even if you have retired from creating new ones.
This solution is the opposite of what I need to do. I have a protected sheet, with 153 ranges in exception that can be edited. I need to create 10+ sheets, and working off a tracking point mouse is too fatiguing. If you could help with this I would be grateful. Thanks, DT
When I try to Run it, I get "Exception: Range not found"?? It does copy the Sheet but does not copy the permissions. Can it also be modified that rather than it naming it as "1", it will go up in months instead? So if I copy January, it calls it February, and then March, etc.
Nevermind, I don't think this will work for me. There are updates on a monthly basis. So when I get to October, I will likely want to copy September rather than the original January one each and every time. So with this code, it won't work will it?
@@givemeapps123 It should still work fine. Your error above is because ON EDIT FUNCTIONS SHOULD NOT BE RUN MANUALLY
I am having issues and I am pretty sure it is user error lol. Do you have services or package in which you can assist with setting up protections on a series of google sheets?
Let's talk about it. spencer.farris@gmail.com
Firstly, thank you, this has saved me a bunch of time!
However, on my original sheet, I have the protection set to 'show a warning when editing this range'. But when running the script, the new sheet has protection set to 'restrict who can edit this range' instead of 'show a warning when editing this range'.
How can I correct this?
There's a isWarningOnly parameter that can be set. So I think (haven't tested) it should be:
function copyWithProtections(){
const sh = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
const ss = sh.getSheetByName("Template");
const prot = ss.getProtections(SpreadsheetApp.ProtectionType.RANGE)
let nSheet = ss.copyTo(sh).setName(sh.getNumSheets()-1);
let p;
for (let i in prot){
p = nSheet.getRange(prot[i].getRange().getA1Notation()).protect().setWarningOnly(true);
}
